In which sentence is the modifying phrase placed incorrectly?
As an AI language model, I am unable to provide a specific answer as there is no context or specific set of sentences to choose from. However, in general, a modifying phrase can be placed incorrectly when it is unclear which word or phrase it is intended to modify. For example, if the phrase is placed too far away from the word it is meant to modify, it can create confusion or change the intended meaning of the sentence.

why do some public schools in Texas receive a lot of funding while others receive comparatively little?
A. High-performing schools receive funds from state universities
B. Older, established schools have fewer expenses, leaving more money to spend on students
C. Schools are funded mainly by property taxes, which vary widely from district to district
D. The permanent school fund favors schools in rural areas
C. Schools are funded mainly by property taxes, which vary widely from district to district, is the main reason why some public schools in Texas receive a lot of funding while others receive comparatively little. School districts with higher property values can generate more revenue from property taxes, which they can then use to fund their schools. This creates significant disparities in funding among school districts.
what is 7x 8 + 13 - 5 divided by 4 + 263 x 8 x 0
The expression can be simplified using the order of operations (PEMDAS):
7x8 = 56
56 + 13 = 69
-5 รท 4 = -1.25
263x8x0 = 0
Therefore:
69 - 1.25 + 0 = 67.75
So, the value of the expression 7x 8 + 13 - 5 divided by 4 + 263 x 8 x 0 is 67.75.
79 + 56 - 9 + 3 + 78234 x 0
79 + 56 - 9 + 3 + 78234 x 0 can be simplified using the order of operations:
- First, we multiply 78234 by 0, which gives us 0.
- Then, we add the remaining numbers: 79 + 56 - 9 + 3 = 129.
Therefore, the value of the expression 79 + 56 - 9 + 3 + 78234 x 0 is 129.
